Sound Production and Editing

Within our group we had to find the correct and most appropriate sound for the following items:

  • A gun cocking
  • A zipper on a coat
  • Footsteps walking through leaves
  • The clink of glass bottles

We recorded the sound of the zipper and the footsteps ourselves using a digital microphone, to create the sound of the footsteps we used a black bin bag, Beth made footsteps that would be in time with our protagonists during the opening scene while I recorded her.

Below are some pictures of us recording foley sounds.

Below are some screen shots of us editing some diegetic sound on the Audacity software, we needed to slightly changed the length of the sound of the zipper so we clipped and increased the tempo of the sound wave and added more bass and treble to get the sound exactly how we needed it to sound.

We also edited the sound of the crows on audacity, we added an echo on to the sound file to make the birds represent the theme of fear.

This is a soundscape that we made to plan out sounds and to make sure they were all in the correct order.
